God made women because mens brains are broken.

Taken from the EU Boards and some stuff added. Please fill free to dicuss this wish list or come up with new additions to be added to this existing one. Remember this is a wish list.

General
Female attack animations have had their speed increased where it was inferior to the male equivalent, resulting in both genders now having equal melee DPS regardless of weapons, and a net DPS gain of roughly 18% for all players who stuck with their female characters.
Sprinting and double-tap abilities now drain a flat, numerical value of stamina rather than a fixed percentage. The amount of stamina drained increases with level.
Characters who have completed their level 60 destiny quest, but still bear the mark of Acheron, may now talk to Scyra in Old Tarantia to have it removed.
Barbers and tattoo artists added to the major cities. Styles and designs available will differ based on location.
Aquilonian dance is now less boring.
All climbing points post-Tortage have had their skill requirement reduced by roughly 50%.
Path of Asura mechanic changed: You may now connect two binding points with a Path, allowing you to travel to either of these bound points every 30 minutes.
Custom emotes: Entering /em <emote> will display an emote in the following format: Character name emotes something. The text will be coloured yellow.
Existing emotes have had a textual component added to them, varying slightly depending on whether you have a target or not.
Coinage drops increased significantly.
New armor and weapons graphics added. Look for them in game!
Dyes for armor added.

Interface
All UI elements are now fully scalable.
The clutter surrounding the hotbars may now be disabled from the HUD menu.
The additional hotbar pages available may now be dislodged and moved around freely as separate bars, with corresponding hotkey sets available from the Controls menu.
Players can now create and join custom chat channels by typing /join <channel name>.
Players may now change chat channel colours at their leisure from an in-game palette.
Both the player and the enemy castbar are now movable and resizable.
Players may now freely choose between the large and overly intrusive default on-screen messages, and a new, more discreet version.
Many tooltips clarified.
Additional useful stats displayed on the player stats screen, certain meaningless stats hidden.
Added a right click ability to report gold spam.


Guild Pane
Guild rank names may now be customized.
Guild rank permissions may now be customized.
The guild pane has been expanded to include a guild roster. Guild roster is no longer merged with friendlist.
If the leader leaves a guild, the alphabetically first character of second highest rank will be given leadership permissions.

Guild tabbards with guild emblems now available - customizable!


Player Character

Archetype
Only characters who are martially proficient - the Soldier and Rogue archetypes - will now be able to employ active blocking as part of their combat strategy.

All classes without mana pools would receive another stamina bar: one bar would be for sprinting/blocking, the other bar would be for combos.

New AA's added for all classes.

Nercomancer

Dark Templer
All white damage does 10% more damage
Has a new attack and animation - Grip of Death, dot/stun - can immobolize a target for 15 seconds and does 30 points of damage per tick. Grip of Death is broken if target is damaged by a melee/bow/magic strike.

Skills

A new PvP system is in place that will make PvP worthwhile. Gain new skills and gear by purchasing them via earn PvP new points system. Note: Killing the same individual in a 30 minute period gives no points to avoid exploiting the system.
Awards only given when other player is within +/- 5 levels.

Tradeskills
The rare components you are asked to gather to advance gathering tradeskills are now less ridiculously rare.

Edit:  Undocumented Patch Notes for 6/26

It seems Necromancers attacking with stealthed pets - the target gets immunity to all forms of stuns,snares, and spells and can only be attacked for the first 10 seconds using the casters pet once they come out of stealth following the first attack. (confirmed)

Patience is a virtue, reason a necessity

The game is going to be great, perhaps in a few more months. They need to step down on the gas and get it done ASAP.  Its a fun game and it will hold a great niche group of players. However the longer they take to repair the game, the more and more people will leave to go back to their old games.
